I have a great idea on how to solve this problem. Why don't one of you sit down at your computer and write some code so this isn't a problem any more. After all it is open source as long as you follow the GNU GPL.
I'm sure the dev group has better things to do then just because some want a SNR instead of a grid square during a contest. Do you think they just program WSJT software and don't have lives outside of ham radio? For a very small dev group they do one hell of a job. I been using WSJT since around 2001 when it was JT44 and FSK441 and have no problems clicking a couple of times to use contest modes to complete a QSO. At this point I just want to think everybody on the dev team for great FREE software. Keep up the great work.

When the normal configuration comes up, the callsign of the station you were working is replaced by the call of the last station you worked with the normal operating configuration. None of the message boxes will have the callsign of the station your were just working. And I'll bet a doughnut that most guys won't remember who they were working after switching to the 'Normal' WSJT-X configuration. If after 2 or 3 repeats from the other station, the best thing to do is to switch sequences and start calling CQ. If you stay in the same sequence and call CQ, you will end up responding again with calls and report to that same station, unless he aborts the QSO. 73, Rich - K1HTV = = = From: Laurie, VK3AMA Simple and only requires a single mouse click. Setup two configurations in WSJT-X, one for you desired contest and the other non-contest. Once setup, it is a single click using the "Configuration" menu to switch between contest and non-contest. de Laurie VK3AMA
